Expanded Description:

VERY gentle, positive training methods.

Puppyhood is a wonderful time, a time that can and should be thoroughly enjoyable for both owner and puppy. New owner's (and old ones, too) should set aside a few minutes daily to read and put into practice all the wonderful advice POSITIVE PUPPY TRAINING WORKS offers. The end result is almost a *given*...a dog that is well mannered and well balanced emotionally. In addition, your dog will be starting off on the correct path toward becoming your soul mate and partner with whom you are able to explore and share the wonderful world with. As a certified professional family dog trainer and behavior counselor, even I find myself referring to POSITIVE PUPPY TRAINING WORKS. Sometimes you can't see futher than your nose, or you don't always practice what you preach and desperately need someone, or some book, to put things in perspective. This book does just that. Thank you Joel Walton for another wonderful clearly written, easy to read and understandable book.
